@satanx opera GX does support myflow, i do also believe that your data profile will transfer over since you are using opera, opera GX does not have instagram sidebar atm, as far as workspaces i'm not too advanced with it, but im sure if you experiment with it i am pretty sure it would, and no opera gx is not hard to use, as a fact its very simple, you can just add things to it, you have a GX corner that is basically for game deals and such. you are right it is a beta version practically it does have some problems but i am sure in later updates problems like that will be fixed, all in all i would mostly prefer opera gx, its safe, secure, you can have a built in vpn, ad-blocker that works extremely well, all in all opera gx is a very satisfying browser apart from its problems.

Hello all, I just started using OGX and am wondering if there is any option to set www.startpage.com as the default for handling searches in the URL bar?

First time i am using Opera GX. Never used Opera before too so i have some questions if you guys don't mind.

• Is there any homepage icon i can add next to the searchbar?
• Is there a way to change the position of the sidebar?

Question 1: Is Opera GX owned by Google?

Question 2: Does Opera GX track you like Google

@googlechromefan No, and no. There are some options to allow some tracking for either statistical purposes (which features most people actually use) or to tailor the (optional) news to your interest, but they are easy enough to turn off.

How many users does GX have? is there a website to check?

All websites just show ''Opera''

@anothermemberofsociety Opera could tell you number of downloads but that can't tell you if they uninstalled it and went back to their old browser. Some sort of survey would be required.

@sgunhouse what would the download number be?

@leocg Oh i see, but it shows Opera in general, not exclusively to GX

@anothermemberofsociety Don't look just in the main page, check the other ones, the reports.

@anothermemberofsociety Just for curiosity, are you planning to invest on Opera's stocks or make business with them? I'm asking because the number of downloads/users are relevant only on those two situations.
